By clicking on ”Shadow IT” from the dropdown, you are directed to the application view showing the top 20 used cloud apps based on data transferred over the last 7 days across your organization.
If you have not imported users and groups, the Shadow IT page will open blank.
The apps are ordered with the app with the least number of users at the top and the app with the most users at the bottom.
Why does dope.swg show least first? Because it’s likely these are the ones you are most interested in to find out why they need to be used.
You can see usage across each of the last 7 days by hovering over the day in the graphic.
As well as offering a view on the most used apps across your organization, dope.swg also offers you a view on where the data from these apps is residing. By selecting Location view from the drop down at the top of the Shadow IT view...
